Autodesk + Instructables: For Makers?

ptorrone writes “MAKE magazine has published an in-depth look at what the recent acquisition of Instructables by Autodesk means for makers and the DIY movement. MAKE suggests it wasn’t about getting the millions of members or projects at Instructables or upselling Autodesk tools. Instead, the acquisition was more about creating many Instructable-like communities around Autodesk’s new free and trial tools including their 3D printing site and service, Autodesk123D.”
